Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include individuals with confirmed Pi*ZZ genotype and mild to moderate AATD-induced lung or liver disease.

Probably not a fit

Patients with severe AATD or those with significant comorbidities that interfere with treatment may not benefit from this study.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This open-label study evaluates the safety and tolerability of WVE-006 in participants with Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency (AATD) through both single and multiple ascending doses. The study aims to understand the pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of the treatment in individuals with mild to moderate AATD-induced lung or liver disease. Participants will be monitored for their response to the treatment and any adverse effects that may arise during the dosing periods.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients suffering from Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.

How similar studies have gone: While there have been studies on AATD treatments, this specific approach using WVE-006 is novel and has not been extensively tested.
